TROUBLE AT CITY HOSPITAL. Board of Regents and Board of Mana gers Demand Retirement of Dr. Zacbary, Resident Physician. -1 For several days there has been con siderable trouble among the officials of the City Hospital, and the affair has culminated in a formal demand on the part of the Board of Managers for the resignation f Dr. R. Zchary, Resident Physician and Steward. And this afternoon at 2 o'clock is the limit fixed for him to leave the institution which he has thus far refused to do. The trouble seems to have grown out of a clash of authority between Dr. C. P. Wertenbaker, medical superintendent, who assumed control October 1st and by order of the Board of Managers superceded the resi dent physician in authority, Dr. Zachary, who has hell the latter posi tion ainco Jruly of 1897. He obtained Uae position by competitive examina tion, . and claims that he is employed f. r two years; -hence his refusal to re tire from the institution at the bidding of Dr. Wertenbaker and the Board of Managers. .' Star readers will remember that Dr. Werteohacher who is in charge of the Marine Hospital, took .only tem porary charge of the City Hospital at the request of the Board of Managers to establish the marine system in the management of the institution and subsequently Dr. J. D. Fife, of Vir ginia, -was appointed assistant superin tendent, a position over Dr. Z denary who ha, barring Dr.' Werten baker's temporary superintendency, been su preme in authority. i There were frequent, clashes be tween the superintendents and Dr Zacharr, wliich Dr. Werten baker brought to the attention of the Board of Managers and Board of Regents; Both organizations endorsed the atti tude of Dr.. Wertenbaker, and on November 22d passed a resolution re questing Dr. Zachary to resign on or before November. 30th. He refused to do so, and on Monday night the Board1 passed an order that if Dr. Zacbary does not vacate the hospital by 2 P. M. today the Mayor be in structed to send officers and eject him by force. -i . The following letters furnished the Star by the chairman of the Board of Managers of the hospital show clear ly the attitude of both the Board of Managers and Board of Regents, to? wit: Office Bard op Managers, City . .Hospital, Wilmington, N. 3., Nov. Vyr29, 1S98. We desire to say that "the Board of Managers of the City Hospital, acting upon the recommendation of the Board . of Regents as follows, unanimously resolved to dismiss Dr. Zacbary on , the 3oth of November, and have so notified him having previously given hi in an opportunity to resign.

NEQRO SOLDIERS IN MACON. Third North Carolina Regiment Threaten to Destroy the City One of Their Number Killed by Saloon Kee per. 'I ' 'il i . , By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Macon, November- 29. Rumor has been rife in the city to-night that the negro-sOldiers of the Third North Carolina regiment, stationed here, in tended to break out of camp and de stroy the city, and much uneasiness has been felt both by citizens and soldiers. The excitement among the negro soldiers was caused by the shooting of private Will Kempin, of Co. F, Third JN orth Carolina, by W. S. Simmons, pro prietor of a saloon. Kern pin is thought to be fatally wounded. He went to Simmons1 bar and called for a drink On being told that the bar was for white people only, he was enraged and anally abused a brother ot tbe proprie tor, who struck him with a bottle. Kem pin went away, but shortly after ward returned with four or five other negro soldiers and started towards young Simmons, calling him a vilel tiarae. W. 8. Simmons, seeing his brother in peril, shot Kern pin in the breast. The negroes ran off. Sim Jt&nais in jail. , Pains in the chest when a person has a cold indicate a tendency toward pneumonia.

Government Officially Ad vised of Successful Termi nation of Negotiations. WILL BE SIGNED THIS WEEK. Apprehension Pelt in Washington As to Attitude of Aguinaldo and the Phil ipplne Insurgents American Force Equal to Emergency. By Telegraph to the Morning star. Washington, Nov, 29. The gov ernment has been officially advised of the successful termination of tbe peace negotiations with Spain . A cablegram to this effect which had been received from Chairman Day was read at to day's cabinet meeting by the secretary of state. By the terms of the treaty, which will be signed during tbe present week, Spain surrenders to the United States her sovereignty in the Philippines archipelago and Guam island, one of the Ladrone group. In lieu of - all claims to indemnity the United States will pay Spain tbe sum of $20,000,000 in gold, or its equiv alent. B-f ore returning to tbe United States our peace commissioners will secure from the Spanish representa tives, if possible, a proposition for the sale to the United States of Strong Island, one of the Carolina group, some distance east and south of Luzon, for a cable station. Should Spain, however; decline to sell the island for a reasonable sum, tbe matter will be dropped for the present at least. The possible cession of this island is not in vol ved in the pending treaty and no presure will be brought to bear to induce Spain to part with it a large part ot tbe time at to-dav's cabinet meeting" was consumed in the discussion of tbe new customs tariff. which is to be put into operation in all parte of Cuba as soon as the United States takes formal possession. pr? ' Aguinaldo' g Attitude. The apprehension which manifested itself sometime ago over the attitude of Aguinaldo and the insurgents has not entirely disappeared, though the administration believes they will ac cent the situation without any conflict witn tbe U uited states Tbe matter was discussed at tbe meeting to dav and some of the views expressed inch cated a possibility that the insurgents may yet have to be dealt with. On the whole, however, the President ex pects that serious trouble with Agui naldo will be avoided, but at the same time has guarded against an outbreak by takm? -precautionary measures. The American force already in occu pancy of part of the Philippines is re garded as altogether equal to cope with any emergency that may arise. The future government of the islands came up incidentally and Secretary Alger made some suggestions as to de tails of a military government of the islands. Formulating the Articles. Paws. Nov. . 29 The secretaries of the two peace commissions. Messrs. Moore and Ojeda, began their joint task of formulating the articles of the peace treaty at 3 o'cl ck this afternoon as directed by tbe respective com mis siona at yesterday's conference. This wort will be easy and rapid, as to the relinquishment and cessions referred to in the protocol, the terms of which document will be transferred bodily to the treaty. -v The secretaries, moreover, will em body astentative articles, for di.-cussion on Wednesday, the subjects of the religious freedom of the Caroline Is'auds, a naval station for the United States in the same group, cable land ing rights at 'other points within Spain's jurisdiction, the release of the insurrectionist prisoners and tbe re- vivai oi ine treaties orouen ov tne war. Thus, the commercial and gen eral treatv of 1795 will be revived, to be re-cast later; the -treaty of 1834, for the settlement of certain claims, will be revived; the treaty of 1877, provid ing tor extradition, will oe revived; the trademark treaty of 1832 will be revived, in addition to the several modus Vivendi agreements. It is expected that the secretaries will submit the treaty articles -at the joint session to-morrow, when all the otber points for negotiation will be discussed. Thus tbe commissioners to-morrow will have before tbem the entire treaty for amendment, approval or rejection. On all the points -outside of tbe pro tocol there will be friendly negotia tion only, Spain having the right to name the prices shewants for her ter ritory and to accept or reject the Americans' offer. The Spaniards, no less than the Americans, now are anxious to con clude the business which brought them here. The Release of Prisoners. As the result of the work of Mr. Moore und Senor Ojeda, tbe draft of tbe articles embodying tbe protocol agreements, was completed this even ing. It wih be presented to the two commissions to morrow; in the morn ing, at their separate sessions and m the afternoon at tbe joint session, when it will receive final considera tion. There will be little delay on these articles. Mr. Moore will also submit to mor row to tbe United states commis sioners tbe subjects to be pre seated to the Spaniards for ne gotiations. These, for convent ence. and great dispatch, are being drafted into the form of articles. The release of the insurgent prisoners held bv Soa:n will go- into tbe protocol agreements, it having been already agreed that Spam is to release them upon the United States undertaking to secure the release of Soantsh oris oners in the hands of Aguinaldo. This question is so intimately slated to the peace treaty that it has bemp removed from the subjects that are "matters of negotiation, and has been embodied in the articles containing tbe protocol. agreements. Paeis, November 29 The Temps savs: "From the outset tbe A men cans have negotiated on the principle to take it or leave it and have covered their claims by a sort of satiety. " The Temps also says; "If the triumph, to call it so, is complete, may it not con tain grave elements of danger and anxiety to the Americans?" London, Nov. 30. The Madrid cor -resnondent of the Daily Mail says: Senor Sagasta asserts that if thej United States insists upon Spain pay ing the Cuban and Philippine debts, she will honor her signature to the extent of her resources, and that the government will not refuse to accept this burden.

The cele brated Alton school case was to day decided by a jury in the Circuit Court at Edwardsville, Illinois, against the colored people who had protested against separate schools. Kecently, because of a new order issued by the school authorities of Illi nois, white and negro children were assigned to different public schools. The colored people resented this and refused to send their children to school. Finally Scott Bibbs, a colored man whose children had been attend ng school, brought mandamus pro ceedings in the Supreme Court of Illinois against the mavor and the school board of the town of Alton to compel them to admit his children to Washington school. a&Mgned to white children, which krrsearest and the most convenient t his place of resi dence. Tie claimed that colored chil dren were discriminated against. When the case came to trial in Madi son Uouoty Circuit Court, to which it bad been referred, tbe defence con tended that the colored children in Alton have the same opportunity for securing an education as the whites and that no discrimination had been practiced. Tbe case will now go to tne Supreme Court. THE NEWS FROM RALEIGH. Pritchard Opposed to Formation of "Uly White" Rep. Party Matrimo nial The Negro Regiment. Special Star Correspondence. .Raleigh, N. C. Nov, 30. Senator Pritchard is out in an inter view against the formation of a 'lily white" Republican party, as was pre dicted that he would do in the Star several weeks since. This afternoon m Christ Church Mrs. Nannie Branch Jones, daughter of Mr. Armistead Jones and grand daughter of Gen L O'B Branch, was married to Mr. Thomas Martin Ashe, son of Captain S. A.

Senator Pritchard and Other Republi cans Will Urge Repressive Legis lation by Congress. . . Special to tbe Baltimore Sun Washington, November , 29. As already intimated, it is not improbable the President may, in his message to Congress next Monday, refer to the recent election riots in North and South Carolina and perhaps make some recommendation in the matter. Even if this does not prove to be the case, tne subject win be orougnt up m the Senate, it is said, by Senator Pritchard, of North Carolina, who will ask for the appointment of a special commitlap to investigate the "riots in bis State and recommend such legisla tion as may tend to prevent a recur rence. President JU.cK.mley, wbue a member of tbe House, voted for the force bill, which gives ground for the belief that he would favor the enact ment of a measure drafted on similasJ lines. Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, author of the force bill, called on Mr. McKinley yesterday and to-day, arid, it is said, brought this matter to his attention. Senator Chandler, who was one of the advocates of tbe Txxisre bll, said to day he bad discovered no reason why he should change his at titude, but has found additional reas ons for maintaining it. No one expects any Federal election law to be enacted at this sea-ion, but much preliminary work is expected to be accomplished bv tne advocates ot such legislation. Not withstanding tbe frantic efforts of political fanatics, it mav well be considered doubtful whether success will attend the re newed efforts to fasten tbis repressive legislation upon the South.

The First Three Articles Concern Re linquishment of Cuba, the Cession of Porto Rico and Guam and the Cession of the Philippines. By cable to the Moraine Star. Paris, Nov. 30. The joint peace commission devoted two hours and a half to day, from 2 to 4.30 P. M., to drafting the three first articles of the peace treaty protocol, dealing with the cession of Cuba, Porto Rico and Philippines, upon which the commis sion agreed in prioc ple. A general discussion on the other articles fol lowed, hut no decision wasreached and., the joint commission adiouined until tormorrow.- There were thirteen articles laid be fore the two commissions, covering the following subjects: First. Tbe relinquishment of sover eignty over and claim of title to Cuba second. The cession of Porto Rico and other Spanish possessions in the w est 1 1 idles, together with Guam, in tbe Lad rones. Tbird.

A revival of the treaties broken by the war. Tne first three a - tides were mutually agreed upon to-day, as apas also the article embodying tbe terms of tbe evacuation of the Philippine islands. I ically the same as t which will be practic in the evacuation of Cuba and Porto Rico. Tbe mutual release of military prisoners was agreed upon, Spain lib-. e rating the rebel prisoners and the United States tne Manila garrison and the Spaniards held by Aguinaldo. The political prisoners to be released by Spain are such as are now in exile at Ceuta, in Morocco, and at other Spanish prisons. Daily sessions will be held hereafter and it is now believed that the work may be possibly concluded this week. although so early a termination is not probable. Tbe foregoing list ot subjects under consideration does not show the pre cise order in which the articles were laid before the Spanish commissioners to-day, and in fact only eight of the thirteen articles were discussed. Four points arose about which the Spaniards desired to consult' Madrid and two upon which the Americans will con sult Washington. After tne session and tbe departure of the Spanish commissioners the Americans remained in tbe conference chamber for an hour in executive session. The adjournments was taken until 3 o'clock to morrow. A CARLIST RISING. Tbe Greatest Existing; Danger to Spain. 140)000 Troop Ready to Take the Field to Suppress a Revolt. By Cable to the Moraine star. London, December 1. The Biarritz correspondent of the Daily Mail says: "Senor Sagasta, who has hitherto been sceptical on the point, now admits that Garlism is the greatest existing danger to Spain. The authorities are' seriously alarmed at the indications of a rising;. The Carlist plans have been elab orately devised, even to the extent of appointing a governor of Madrid. The Madrid correspondent of the Daily Mail says: , "Ya t "Liieut. uh-n. Uorrea, Minister or War. declares that the government has 140,000 troops in readiness to take tbe field in the event ot a Uariist rising and will soon have 200.000 available. He says, however, he does not believe that the Carhsts intend to move yet. "Four hundred guns which were beiner slumred have been seized at a Basaue village. "Don Carlos, in his forthcoming manifesto, will make a strong appeal to the army. The Carlists disagree among themselves as to the advisa bilitv of an immediate movement." The Rome correspondent of the, Daily Mail says the Pope has been so much impressed by the alarm express ed by the papal nuncio at Madrid of the possibility of a civil war, that with the consent of the queen regent and with a view of avoiding bloodshed he has opened negotiations with Don Carlos, proposing that Don Jaime, the pretender's son, should marry Princess-Mary, of Austria.
